Armstrong September Community & Construction Update

Spring is finally here and though the weather is still a little confused, we’re getting ready for some summer fun!

The footy finals are here, and all eyes are set on the top eight who’ll be battling it out for the thrilling Grand Final win.

Of course, the school holidays are also approaching and at ARMSTRONG, that means more time for family splashing in the Club pool, enjoying an upcoming community event, or just relaxing in one of our ‘destination’ parks.

It’s all systems go with construction, with the $2M Club Armstrong extension progressing nicely and the $13M Poa Banyul Community Hub now completed. Poa Banyul sits within the heart of ARMSTRONG, with kindergartens, outdoor play spaces and a range of community support facilities for parents.

With pre-school classes already underway, the new hub is already ringing with the happy sound of little ones playing.

Enjoy the warmer weather and stay tuned for more updates!

Sincerely,
The ARMSTRONG Team.

Construction Update

$2M Club Armstrong Extension Under Way

A $2million-dollar extension to our Club Armstrong facility at Mt Duneed is progressing well with the two-storey facility set to host a range of community use features.

The sleek ClarkeHopkinsClarke-designed club upgrade, being built by Spence Constructions, will be connected to the club’s existing shed, previously used as a community men’s shed.

 

$55M Mt Duneed Village To Open Next Year

Mt Duneed residents will soon have access to a host of new shops and amenities, including a Champions IGA, with the $55m Mt Duneed Village set to open in the second half of 2024.

New Park for ARMSTRONG
​​​​
ARMSTRONG Mt Duneed’s parks are immensely popular not just with kids but with parents and the whole family! Picnic, outdoor parties and gatherings, community events, outdoor movie nights, Christmas parties, concerts Cats footy workshops… we’ve had them all and we’ll have plenty more!

For now, though, check out Nova Park which will be launching later this year!
